[omniORB] Compiling an application on Win NT using gcc

[Reiner Beck]

Hello List,

I am porting an application from Linux to Win NT 4.0/SR 6 and try to
re-use my gnu environment including the gcc compiler. (I don't want to
change my existing kdevelop project (based on autoconf/automake/gcc ..)
into a MSVC++ Project.)

When I link my application I get an "Undefined reference to
omni_thread::init_t::init_t(void)" (detailed output see below)

Is it possible at all to build an omniORB application with the gnu
compiler on Win NT? (omniORB itself is compiled using MSVC)

Am I using the right lib's or are there any lib's missing?

Am I missing something here?

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

BTW: I am using the omniORB 2.8.0 binary distribution for WinNT

Please note that the macros "__WIN32__", "__x86__", "__NT__",
"__OSVERSION__=4" are defined in an include file "sitedef.h" and are not
shown on the c++ command line. As I am using the static libraries (OK,
try too :-/ ) , the macro "_WINSTATIC" is defined there as well.
